.


We’re really
Not managing
To get very far

Stopping
As often as we do
To be in each other’s arms

It’s not only
Because it’s cold
The winter snow
Drifting upon the dunes

That strong North wind
Coming off Lake Michigan
The white wool cap
Around your long blond hair

Now if in fact
Our pauses mean
We don’t in the end
Ever get back at all

Well
My summer girl
No matter what time
Of the year it is

I can easily imagine
Worst ways to go
